According to Billboard, Bow Wow is turning his focus away from music to acting, and has a string of acting gigs in the pipeline. Check out the report:Actor-rapper Shad Moss, aka Bow Wow, is focusing on acting full time. Moss has joined the upcoming fifth season of HBO's "Entourage" in a recurring role, playing Charlie, a new stand-up comic client of E (Kevin Connolly).
Additionally, he has landed a role opposite Forest Whitaker, rapper Lil Wayne and Isaiah Washington in the Weinstein Co.'s sports drama "Patriots," about a high school basketball team in post-Katrina Louisiana."
After 16 years in the music industry and six successful albums, I've decided to shift my energy to something else I'm passionate about, acting," Moss said. "I'm going to try to be the next Will Smith."
Like Moss, Smith started off as a rapper before segueing into acting.
Big ups to Bow Wow, but he is being extremely cocky for someone who's last outings failed to reach the excess of one million copies, plus the extreme failure of last year's 'Face Off' a joint effort with Omarion, who was recently dropped by the label. Maybe this is Bow Wow's way of preventing the same thing from happening to him. Hmmmm.
